  1. P.S I have a shared ip address on my re-seller hosting account, but can buy static IPs for £2 per month.
  2. I am using a re-seller hosting account to learn this book. 1) In the first example, the paypal one, do I need to buy a SSL certificate to complete the example? What is the cheapest option (considering that I have a re-seller account & need to connect to paypal) ? Is the cheapest option to buy a static IP address (for £2 on my host) & then use openssl (my hosting supports) to create a self-signed certificate? 2) In the 2nd example, the one that briefly handles credit card information, what is the cheapest option? Considering that I am developing this site purely to learn & not sell products. Can I buy a static IP address (for £2 on my host) & use openssl (like before)? I know this wouldn't be secure for a commercially active site, but this site is 100% for learning. Thank-you
  3. Thank-you Larry. I've looked at that post you kindly recommended. I contacted paypal & got the following response: "No, this problem is caused by your webserver returning non-SSL data for a HTTPS link. For example, if https://www.mydomain.co.uk/return.html return plain HTTP data, rather than the HTTPS data your browser would expect. To resolve this, you would either need to check your SSL configuration within your webserver, or resort to using a non-HTTPS link for your 'return' link within the PayPal button. I hope this clears it up. Please let me know if you have any questions." How do I check the SSL configuration within my webserver? I have a shared host using cpanel. Is this an issue with the hosting? Should I contact my hosting company? Thanks
  4. An error occurred during a connection to www.mydomain.co.uk SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length. (Error code: ssl_error_rx_record_too_long) I am stuck on chapter 6. After signing into paypal sandbox, using the buyer account I created & then clicking the 'go back to my site button,' I got the following error above. How do I solve this please?
